Accepted Answer

To tell if Golden Goose is real, first compare the GGDB brand logo on the shoe to images of the official design published on trusted online resources.

When in doubt, consult a certified appraiser or other knowledgeable authenticator. Explore a collection of Golden Goose shoes on 1stDibs.
